April 2012 AOS Filers

[fabadu 0]

Same thing here. I have filed my aos in April 20. I have no news so far but it seems like it just takes longer to adjust from K1. Since it's been 6 months you can call USCIS to ask them if they can give you any info. I think I'm going to do that tomorrow. I hope they will be able to give me an update.

Have a nice week!

Actually, I called USCIS today and they couldn't give me any update because you have to wait 6 months after your case has been transferred to CSC (the application date doesn't seem to matter), so we are still in the "normal processing time". I was asked to call back in a month in case I haven't received any information by then.

Hopefully we will hear back from them soon. I guess we just have to be patients....

Have a nice week!

It's been almost thirty days so I sent the DHS Ombudsman a follow-up email today.

[Hypnos 6,577]

The Ombudsman replied to my email today, simply stating that USCIS is permitted 45 days to respond to the Ombudsman's original enquiry to them and that they have not yet received any response. They stated that the 45 days expires two weeks from today, on 23rd November, so it was anticipated that I would hear something by that date, but to contact their office again if I had not.

So, what I figured for the most part, but I've been going crazy sitting on my hands like this.

hopefully this is the home stretch for you. what a weary journey. be encouraged.

USCIS decided not to respond to the Ombudsman within 45 days.

In response, the Ombudsman contacted them again and have given them another 45 days to respond.

It's a good thing I am not taking all of this personally, if I were I would think that this is some kind of social experiment designed to find my breaking point.

My I-360 was just transferred to "my local USCIS office" which I assume means back to Dallas...

[Hypnos 6,577]

The Ombudsman confirmed to me this morning that my I-360 has been transferred to Dallas. Whether or not VSC sprinkled the secret sauce over it that they needed to, or they finally figured out that local offices can adjudicate widow/er petitions, I'm not sure, but either way I think I'm in the home stretch now, thank god.

I might even get an approval before Xmas, which would be a nice thing to have.

I doubt anyone is still reading this thread anyway, but it makes me feel good to show that I am close to getting what everyone else achieved months ago.

You'd be surprised Still following your case and waiting for your approval notice!

I am still reading it! I received my GC a couple of weeks ago but I still keep an eye on what's happening to the probably last April Aos filer. I am very happy for you. I hope you will get the approval for X-mas. Fingers crossed! This was a very long process which deserves a positive outcome just for the patience you had to have for so many months.

I wish you a great weekend!

Good to know there are still people around here other than myself.

I still log in frequently just to check on you Hypons, you were very supportive to all the members, and I you wish the best of the best... all the support buddy, you are so close

You are not alone. I'm an April AOS filer too, and still waiting for my GC. The last time I heard from the USCIS was about my EAD, about 6 months ago.

[Hypnos 6,577]

I received a notice in the mail today indicating that my I-360 had been transferred...to VSC (!). Not sure if it's a mistake or what, since it directly contradicts what the Ombudsman told me just a couple of days ago.

It never rains but it pours...

If it's just being transferred to VSC then where was it until now? Surely they are not sending a notice about transferring it within the same Service Center?

Perhaps it's a notice of transfer to Dallas Service Center and they just used the wrong template. In any event you should know for sure very soon.

I hope you do get your case adjudicated soon!

As other user pointed you are remembered (I still remember you being one of only few who was supportive when I posted about my case) and we wish you the very best!

[Hypnos 6,577]

I think it's probably a mistake and that they meant to say Dallas, since last Wednesday their email update specifically said "your local USCIS office", plus the Ombudsman emailed me that day, also saying Dallas.

Either way, I forwarded it to the Ombudsman again. I might try to talk to a tier 2 ISO on Monday as well.
